i) If the wireless network is secured by WPA-PSK or WPA2-PSK, the key formats, shared key and

encryption must be set correctly.

j) Click Submit to save your settings. And the server will reboot.
k) You have now finished the procedure of setting the wireless parameters.

After properly configuring the wireless parameters, you can remove the network cable and reboot the
PPS2101N/PPS2104N. The PROLiNK® PPS2101N/PPS2104N will then connect to your wireless
network. PPS2101N/PPS2104N will detect if a network cable is plugged-in or not. If a network cable is
plugged-in, PPS2101N/PPS2104N will always connect to the network through the network cable.
Otherwise it will always connect to the network through wireless module. Once PPS2101N/PPS2104N
connects to the network, either by network cable or by wireless module, all operations to use
ShareHub Device Servers are exactly the same.

3.3. Assigning an IP Address to the Server

3.3.1. Preliminary

If you have a DHCP server on your network, your Server will receive an IP address automatically.
The IP address will then appear on the ShareHub Device Servers Control Center or on the page of
configuration report that you printed earlier. If your DHCP server does not give an IP address to
the Server, the Server will use the automatic private IP addressing IP: 169.254.0.0. ~
169.254.255.255

If you are not working in a DHCP network, you need to manually set the Server’s IP address.

3.3.2. IP Address

Unless you are assigning an IP address using DHCP, you must obtain an unused IP address from your
network administrator.
